Some Costa Rican Tongue


I drew this cartoon for The Costa Rica Star and it ran Friday, March 16. The president signed a new anti-nepotism law and I speculated  it could impact the next administration, if that presidency is occupied by religious wingnut Fabricio Alvarado and his speaking-in-tongues wife. I draw four cartoon a month for the Star. Since... Continue Reading →

Cementazo Chopper


I drew this cartoon last week for The Costa Rica Star. Costa Rica presidential candidate Fabricio Alvarado has been flying to events in a helicopter that's connected to Juan Carlo Bolanos. Bolanos is currently embroiled in the Cementazo scandal and is currently in preventive imprisonment (whatever that means) for embezzlement, influence peddling, criminal simulation and...

El Protector


The United States donated three tactical vehicles to Costa Rica's police forces, and they didn't pass technical revisions. The vehicles lack reflective stickers, as they're all black, so they can operate on night missions. The exhaust system has a grill so people can't go Beverly Hills Cop on them and insert bananas. There are no... Continue Reading →

Expat Democrats


This cartoon ran last week in The Costa Rica Star. I get annoyed at people who claim they'll leave the country if they don't get their way. You hear a lot of celebrities make that promise. But, after they don't get their way they don't ever do us the favor of keeping their promise and... Continue Reading →

Alvaradomania


If you're a betting person, you'll put your money on Alvarado winning the presidency in Costa Rica. The run-off pits Fabricio Alvarado against Carlos Alvarado. Fabricio is the religious zealot from the National Restoration Party, that only holds one seat in the National Assembly, which is held by Fabricio. Carlos is from the center/left Citizen...

Some Costa Rica Tongue


Here's last week's cartoon for The Costa Rica Star. A video emerged of presidential candidate, Fabricio Alvarado, wife speaking in tongue. It's good stuff. I'm not far enough along in my Spanish lessons to hold a conversation yet, but I can tell from the tape when she's not speaking Spanish...or any discernible language. Fabricio made...

Election Day In Costa Rica


Costa Rica is going to the polls today to elect a brand-new president. This cartoon was published last week for The Costa Rica Star (and there's a new one for this week which I'll post here next week. Confusing? Yeah). Fabricio Alvarado, an evangelical preacher and singer of Christian music whose wife speaks in tongues... Continue Reading →

Costa Rica Is Not An S-Hole


Here's last week's cartoon for The Costa Rica Star. There's a new one for this week and you should go check it out. I will no longer be drawing two cartoons a month for The Star. I'm going to draw four. HAHA. Did I scare you? They kinda scared me too. We'll start that in... Continue Reading →

Cementazo Christmas


I usually wait a week after I draw a cartoon for The Costa Rica Star before I post it on my site. But, since this has a Christmas theme I'm really not going to wanna see it again after today. I'm not a fan of Christmas clichés used in cartoons, like the naughty list or... Continue Reading →

Sticky Marchamo


This cartoon was published December 1 in The Costa Rica Star. In Costa Rica, the government makes you purchase an annual Marchamo sticker for your car. It's basically a property tax based on the value of the vehicle. In the United States, you can usually look forward to the tax bill on your vehicle being... Continue Reading →
